"This is one of those occasions where several things conspired against us (not to mention the additional delays due to the holidays)," Telltale said in a new update. "I won't dive into the details, but it's been an unusual and specific set of circumstances."

Episode two is now planned for "early February," and should launch simultaneously across Xbox, PlayStation, PC, Mac, and iOS.

"We are very concerned about the long delay for this episode," the rep added, noting "we do not anticipate it happening again as we go forward with the rest of the season."
